Wesley Willis Art Examples

Shoreline, 1996

Rare early landscape drawing by the one and only Wesley Willis. As with most Wesley drawing this was made on location and shows some of bumps and condition marks from him walking around the city with it in a bag with his folding chair and box of markers. The corners are dented but the piece still looks amazing under glass in a nice frame. The price of wesleys drawings have been going up every year and this early piece would make a great investment.

It seems that around this time Wesley started doing drawings from memory, and this was a favorite subject. Up to this time, his drawings seem to have all been done in the open air, right in front of the subject.
